Construction of flip gates
The design of the gate includes three main parts: 2 fixed sides and a prefabricated frame. The sides are bolted to the floor or pavement. Depending on the requirements, the boards can be rectangular or angular. The frame ends are equipped with rubber shock absorbers to minimize damage to the mezzanine flooring and reduce noise during operation. Open places of pipes are closed with decorative plastic plugs.
Operating concept
While the gate is closed on the mezzanine side, it is open on the opposite side, which allows the warehouse operator to deliver or pick up the pallet with the load. The position of the gate is controlled by the employee on the mezzanine. Closed at his place and opened for the warehouse equipment to operate. No one interferes with each other and no one waits. The gate operation mode is changed when the frame is raised or lowered. There are no locks, hooks, fasteners and locking mechanisms as the gate works on the principle of shifting the center of mass.
